I feel like the Rangers have had better high danger chances and more high end chances this period, yet they’re down 2-0.

They’re not working the opposing goalie. Varly has had a very easy night.

for the record Pierre is still gushing about the team. Says we're getting better and better.

 

[Raspewtin]

thanks I guess

 

[RGY]

f*** you Hajek.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Harry Howell with the delay of game there... got it.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

I think that was a bad call. that was in the bench, not behind the bench.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

#3 Long Island... not realllly New York.

 

[Anthony5967]

Miller ever going to get PP2 over Trouba?

Feels almost like a participation award.

This game turned out to be Kakko poo poo

The Panarin and Zibanejad chances were tame as hell. Very disappointing

 

[will1066]

Props to those who said when your PP sucks, it costs you games. We had PP chances and didn't cash in. Leaves no margin for error.

 

[RiffyNYR61]

Just not our night

....again

 

[SnowblindNYR]

literally the opposite of his reputation

Maybe, but all season he has given up backbreaking third period goals. Great game and then gives up two and ends the game. One I understand but two f***ing goals was unacceptable there.

 

[Black Aces]

When your 2 top players get A+ chances that the goalie make looks like a routine save you aren't winning a grinding 1 goal type game the Isles force you to play. Throw in an AHL defenseman scared to take a hit and its GG.

Dont forget a stale PP that doesn't move and continually gets deployed with the same plan.

 

[NYR3]

Had to make an account to vent. This team is too soft in the offensive zone and too one dimensional. No screens, no cycling, no point shots. Everything is off the rush and they blow a breakaway and a 2 on 1. Holy shit wake the hell up and have some balls

 

[Math the wild rose]

Still hoping Lafreniere can make an impact soon. 1 point in 11 games for a 1st overall is abysmal.

Zibenejad looking awful might not seem as bad if our 1st and 2nd overall picks actually produced like 1st and 2nd overall picks.

And I dont want to down Kakko, who I think is playing well recently, but he just isn't producing. End of the day is about results and they're not there.

he'll have the same impact as Jack hugues on his first season, be patient, next year i expect his breakout, after a full season.

Hope Rangers will be of the playoffs this year. i like this team very much too.

They played a fine game. This place is a madhouse.

Right into the glove. Guy didn’t even have to lift his arm!

kakko played well imo

This pretty much. The game was on Panarin and Zibby's sticks but I'm not blaming the former. He has produced this year.

 

[itsPLkielbasa]

I don't think I've seen Zib skate into the zone once this year without losing the puck. What the hell is going on with him?

Confidence is completely gone.

 

[DudMan28]

There’s no such thing as being bailed out by the post. Hitting the post is a missed shot.

If you block the net on a 100% microscopic level, you’d leave the post wide open.

Good point. Wasnt trying to knock Shesty all. Was just curious if teams hit the post more against him

 

[Black Aces]

Glad strome was out there to mishandle the puck

 

[rdhstlr23]

Man. Another shutout from Varlamov. Gonna need to figure him out. Our new Matt Murray.
